LINEN, VIBRANT & ELEGANT
Living, linen has been adapting for thousands of years... Today, it is not only a material for decoration, conformist, of good taste, with this virginal aspect:
Dior, Jacquemus, Fendi or Louis Vuitton, the plant fiber is a hit with the great designers. This natural fabric has become an essential part of summer wardrobes and has also conquered the hearts of designers.
WHAT IS LINEN?
Its plant is said to be herbaceous (it looks like a grass) and bastard (its fiber is contained in the stem). It has a white, purple or pastel blue flower, which indicates when the stem has reached its maximum size and from which the maceration allows to extract the fibers. Practical, isn't it?
KENZO - "Linen, a noble, subtle, nonchalant, fresh and light material."
Biodegradable, flax is quick and easy to grow. It requires few chemicals and little irrigation during its cultivation. Nowadays, as desires turn to ethics, sustainability and intelligence, linen fabric reflects many of these values for our greatest happiness!
We are convinced that this material is an encounter to be had! A relationship of intimacy through the aspect, a fineness, a particularity. To adopt linen fabric is to appreciate all its aspects:
Yes, linen fabric is easy to appreciate for its incredible properties. It is at the same time: resistant, breathable, thermoregulatory and absorbent. This makes it the perfect fabric for summer! But it is also a living material, which does not tame who wants...
Jean-Charles de CASTELBAJAC - "I love linen for its smell, its elegance, its history. I love linen, it is an eternal material."
Indeed, not all its charms are appreciated. The idea of linen fabric with low elasticity, slightly rigid and crisp, which tends to crease, persists. However, linen remains a living material, which lives with its time and has not finished surprising you!
CURRENT LINEN
The linen fabric has been reinvented. Always trendy, it has conquered the hearts of all generations. How did it do that? Well, it doesn't take much to bring this material into a hyper-modernity!
Today, the new researches make it even more noble: printing, work of pleating or devoured... there is no limit to the embellishment of this eternal material.
For example, the blend of fibers allows you to find something different in the feel, drape or puffiness of linen fabric. And no, you are not dreaming! Linen is available in linen organdy or in a blend of incredible softness ... The possibilities from a technological point of view have definitely allowed to divert the linen fabric from its usual uses or from its traditional image.
Giorgio ARMANI - "I love linen, because it's a noble fabric, with unlimited possibilities."
LINEN TENDER
More ecological than cotton and more pleasant to wear in summer, the linen fabric is back at the top of the trends. From the chic blazer to the beach dress, you will quickly fall for it!
To play with its chic and timeless side, simply add a small jacket in natural colored linen to jeans. You can also choose the total tailor look in colored linens with pants, being made crop and culottes or flare and high waist!
As summer approaches, linen dresses are also in demand: The eternal shirt dress that crosses the years without ever getting a wrinkle, but also the more sexy and bare cuts in "cut out" mode, will be in a white or natural fabric.
Chemises over-size ou vestes ajustées se verront aussi magnifiées d'un lin à carreaux ou de tissages uniques.
Otavio and Rosita MISSONI - "Every time it is used, linen gives surprising results. It exalts color, stitch, shape or technique for passionate researchers and designers."
No matter what your style, thematerial is important. And linen is a material of excellence. With a history as long as humanity, it has known how to cross the ages and always reinvent itself! So now, what are you waiting for to adopt it?
